I'd go:
Gollini
Hutton
Elphick
Baker
Amavi
Tish
Westwood
Bacuna (I'm not happy to play he or Westy from the start particularly, but it says it all that we actually looked worse without them last night).
Ayew
Grealish
McCormack.
Subs- Bunn, Toner, Green, Lyden (is he available??), RHM, Gestede, Traore.
I'd occasionally alternate RM and Ayew as the main man up top or in behind.
With those full-backs it's important to come out strong and keep on the front foot. We need to impose ourselves on the game.
I'd go with that. Win the battle in midfield and let the quality tell.

I really don't think McCormack can play the 9 role. Not sure about ayew there either. We need another
Would have Richards, bacuna or anyone at right back, just no Alan hutton

Wow, what a choice that is!! I'd rather have Fernando Nelson back.

We do need another, but I can't see us bringing in anyone before the final week of the window. We need to prioritise midfield and defence first.

Villa HAVE to win these next two home games however unlikely that seems.
Three League games played and six points accrued. An average of two points per match.
We're starting to compete at last.

That line up looks a bit dodgy. Playing one midfielder is not the best idea in the world.
I count six.
Name your team.

Who's your 6? Ayew and Green are not midfielders and neither is Amavi.
Name your team ?
I'd rather you name your 6 midfielders. Besides, I haven't given a team i'd pick much thought.
